There is a difference between honour and glory (though they are similar). Glory is more like fame, you gloat in the admiration of other people - that is glory. Honour, on the other hand, is your own personal belief of how respected you are. That also includes your own respect for yourself, which is why honesty and integrity (and the belief you are like that) is another definition for honor.

The impact of scary TV on children's wellbeing has been overstated, according to University of Sussex psychologists. While research has shown that a small minority of children can have extreme reactions to a scary programme or film, the researchers found that, overall, children show very little sign of increased anxiety, fear, sadness or sleep problems.
